They were 2 brothers from Rome who sided with the Plebians in the escallating Plebian vs. Patrician conflict. They were sons of Cornelia who was the daughter of Scipio Africanus. Tiberius Gracchus became tribune of Rome in 133 BCE and tried in many ways, some illegally, to help the common and poor people. He eventually passed a bill returning public lands to the state for distribution which was vetoed by another tribune. He illegally passed a bill kicking that tribune from office while illegally running for reelection and then passed his land bill again. This sparked a riot in which he was stripped to his underwear, beaten to death with a broken stool, decapitated, and thrown in the Tiber. His brother met a similar fate after being elected tribune in 123 BCE.
The Gracchi brothers were reformers who tried to redistribute the land of the major patricians to the plebeians [Tiberius Gracchus 133 BCE]. Gaius ten years later, [123 BCE] with the assistance of publicans tried to impose taxes in Asia but he was in conflict to senatorial influence. Both brothers were killed by their opponents
he wanted more control.:)
Because of government reasons. and he wanted to get his point of view across to the government
The Tiberius Gracchus and the Gaius Gracchus, were the Roman brothers who tried to reform Rome's political and social structure so as to help the lower classes, in the 2nd century B.C.

Both Tiberius and Gaius Gracchus wanted to effect a land redistribution to give land to the landless poor.
Tiberius Gracchus was assisted with the implementation of his reform which provided for the redistribution of land for the poor by Appius Claudius, his father-in-law, the consul and jurist Publius Mucius Scaevola and his brother Publius Licinius Crassus Dives Mucianus, who was the Pontifex Maximus. Many of his friends were polulares, members of the popularis, a political faction which championed the cause of the poor and wanted reforms to improve their condition. He also must have had many friends among the poor plebeians.
Ancient Rome produced two men who wanted to reform the way Rome operated. The brothers Gracchus, Tiberius and Gaius were elected by the people to be tribunes and act in behalf of the common Roman citizen, not to help the Senate and the aristocracy of Rome. They sought land reforms, and better opportunities for the common man. Both men were killed by their enemies.
The Gracchus brothers were trying to limit the amount of land someone could own, and give public land to the poor. They did not succeed, but set a dangerous example for politicians in the future. Both were eventually killed (Tiberius was beaten to death with chairs, Gaius was forced to commit suicide).
The Gracchus brothers were two Roman reformers. They wanted to fix problems without going through the Senate. Tiberius became a tribune, so he could appeal directly to the people. He wanted to limit the amount of land people could own, and he proposed that the Senate should give public land to the poor. Senators beat him to death with chairs they were sitting on. Gaius, his brother, continued on with Tiberius' ideas once Tiberius was dead, but was eventually forced to commit suicide to maintain his honor (before he was beaten to death with chairs, too.)

Tiberius Gracchus didn't conquer anything. He was a tribune of Rome who wanted to return conquered land that the rich had bought to the poor who had fought for them. He went through illegal means to accomplish this and eneded up starting a riot during which he was killed by a stool and thrown into the Tiber River. His brother tried the same thing and was killed accordingly in the same manner, except without the stool.
